How do you believe the Constitution should be taught in schools, especially with all the new resources that we have and the fact that a lot of young people simply view the Constitution as something that was created two hundred-something years ago and is old and maybe out of date? Video Link

I was wondering why you think we have a Constitution? Video Link

How does the Constitution help Americans solve their problems? - Video Link

My question deals with separation of powers. Do you think that if today we made a new Constitution, or the founders wrote the Constitution today, considering how much power the president and the executive branch has gained, do you think they would place more limitations or define better what is separating the powers? Video Link

I think that when the framers were writing the Constitution that the situation in the United States and the relationship between the federal government and state government was a lot different than it is now. Do you ever find that in your rulings there are specific aspects of the Constitution that frustrate you to have to apply to modern-day cases? Video Link

Do you believe that federal policies such as No Child Left Behind or minimum drinking age and things like that that effectively force states into making laws, do you believe that is an abuse of federal power, where the jurisdiction was originally states’ rights but by withholding funding for say highways or something, the states are forced to make a decision? Video Link
